Additional On-Road Gear In addition to a helmet and eye protection, we also recommend: 0 Sturdy boots with non-slip soles to help protect your feet and ankles. 0 Leather gloves to keep your hands warm and help prevent blisters, cuts, burns and bruises. 0 A motorcycle riding suit or jacket for comfort as well as protection. Bright- coloured and reﬂective clothing can help make you more noticeable in traffic. Be sure to avoid loose clothes that could get caught on any part of your motorcycle. 4 Additional Off-Road Gear On-road apparel may also be suitable for casual off-road riding. But if you plan on any serious off-road riding you will need more serious off-road gear. In addition to your helmet and eye protection, we recommend off-road motorcycle boots and gloves, riding pants with knee and hip pads, a jersey with elbow pads, and a chest/ shoulder protector.
